Geeks have a love-hate relationship with The Big Bang Theory, America's favorite sitcom. I'm a Johnny-come-lately to the show, but when I saw it I suddenly got, after years of resistance, that a "truly alien" Doctor could really work in the modern series. (And yes, I'm saying that Smith isn't THAT much more alien than his two predecessors.)

Finally, after months in the void, Alan and Derek return to discuss the important issues of the day.A Who is this bright young thing going by the name ofA Jenna-Louise Coleman?A Will she be a Titanic success or will she wash up?A (wellA she is a SOAPA star…I’ll get my coat)

Having took time to detox from February's misadventures and not-so-fresh off of our reviews of the so-called five worst stories of all time, we're joined by Lord Zimon to review the so-called best story of all time, "The Caves of Androzani."

What happens when you mix scotch with spectrox? Delusions of grandeur or the delightful ecstacy of a time gone by? Listen closely, friends, as we unpeel the laytex mask behind one of Robert Holmes' latest (and perhaps greatest) stories.

Plus...feedback!

Follow us on Facebook, catch Sean on Twitter via @tardistavern, Steve via @tardistaverntit, and Josh via @whomejz. We like audio feedback, because sometimes we're too loopy on spectrox to read some of it out loud, so send it to tardistavern@gmail.com.

SIOBHAN ALONE.

The largish, not-that-pretty purple haired girl sat in front of a microphone, wondering how she had got herself into all this....

Look, Siobhan has a gander at Shada - the novelisation and the Audio Go reading by Lalla Ward. She also tries to fit it into the wider context of Series Seventeen. One wonders just how successful she'll be with that, to be honest...

Oh, and lovers of the various, interesting noises made by her cats will be in for a whole new world of treats...

The DWO WhoCast - Now with 100% more dog!

In our fifth episode, we discuss subtext, both where it clashes and merges with the text, when the sun hasn't gone to our heads, at least. We also plan Swanncon 2012, picture George Lucas telling Kevin Smith to shut up, plot global population realignment and still find time to highlight the continuing ridiculousness of Marvel Comics.

Welcome back to Doctor Whocast! This week we start our analysis of Series 5, the first series featuring Matt Smith as the Doctor. Even though it aired long ago, Bobby, Brian and Nancy discuss what it's like to revisit the current doctor in his inaugural vehicle, and still find some time to go through email and twitter listener feedback. The gang also weighs in on the annoucement of the new companion, Jenna-Louise Coleman. As always, sit back, relax and enjoy the only podcast that also travels in time!

After a couple of quiet weeks on the news front, we were treated to a bumper crop of topics worthy of discussion on this episode of Radio Free Skaro. Not only were we introduced to the next companion in the form of Jenna-Louise Coleman, but the official Doctor Who Convention in Cardiff gave us a new trailer for Series 7 and so much more, as told to us by our new friend Phil Cannon from the Who's He Podcast who attended the convention and had a grand time. And as if that wasn't enough, we present an interview with Graeme Burk and Robert Smith? about their new book Who Is The Doctor?, and top off the episode with a look at the works of Terrance Dicks in the Miniscope. The excitement for Series 7 is building. We hope we help you pass the time until then in an entertaining fashion!

Live from Cardiff, it's the Who's He? Podcast's coverage of the official Doctor Who Convention!! Well, ok, it's not live but in Cardiff they were and Phil & Paul attempt to give you a flavour of what it was like to be at the BBC's first stab at a convention since the 1980's. Was it any good? Did they have a good time? Was it worth the £99 ticket price? All these questions are answered in this weeks episode but not only that, Phil & Paul both realise a childhood dream.

And there's also this weeks important news of the announcement of the Doctors new companion, when we can say goodbye to Rory and Amy and some old foes of the Doctor make a return in Series 7.

Summary:
Adam J Purcell, Andy Simpkins and Keith Dunn sit down, pyjamaed, in front of the 2005 Doctor Who festive special, The Christmas Invasion, and spout our usual nonsense!

The Doctor’s feeling a new man, Rose is grieving and the Queen is teetering on the edge. But enough of their problems, please sit down with us to enjoy Doctor Who: The Christmas Invasion...

Do double the Doctors provide double the fun? It's hard to say, but we'll give it a try anyways as we take a look at The Two Doctors. The Second and the Sixth Doctor team up to fight a mad scientist, the Sontarans and a genetically advanced mad woman (played by Servalan, go figure).

After a slight delay, Josh and Ashley are back, fighting through spring storms to discuss the final two books in the Timewyrm series. We're tackling Timewyrm: Apocalypse by Nigel Robinson and Timewyrm: Revelation by Paul Cornell. One of these is a fantastic look into the mind of the Doctor, examining his relationship with Ace and his motivations, a book so full of ideas that it takes 70% of the podcast to talk about. The other is Timewyrm: Apocalypse. Join your hosts as they try to wrap their heads around the Doctor's choice in baby names and discuss the motivations of psychotic 8 year olds. The Oncoming Storm... Yes, We would club your head in with a brick if it meant that Paul Cornell would like us.

Never fear, dear listeners, we haven’t forgotten about you! Between life happening and a decided lack of Doctor Who we needed some kind of inspiration for the podcast. Matt eventually hit upon just the thing by centering an entire episode around our “wildly popular” WhoTube segment! A two or three minute video would hardly suffice, so we called up the hearty three part “The Ten Doctors” (starting with part one here: http://youtu.be/_nCb3y4J850) by podcast favorite Babelcolour. We also cover a bit of Who news which is “wildly outdated,” just without the sarcastic quotes.

This week’s episode of Doctor Who is “The Celestial Toymaker” by the BBC, so check it out at http://youtu.be/cOLF5fOhq0g

It’s Season 2 Episode 1. In this episode, Steve recounts his experiences at the SFX Weekender, The Whostorian Drinking Game gets more rules, The Companion Randomizer lands on Vislor Turlough and the guys talk about Abslom Daak … Dalek Killer.
